Out of stock at Amazon , for now.

Got two at the discounted price.  I will be holding these for a long while, I think I'm at 28 or 30.  Thanks Amazon.  This lagging stock will add 6 months to the appreciation lag I expect.

Walmart and amazon are weighing the birds down. They are to fat to fly currently, they need to drop some pounds for them to fly. We just have to hope the neighbors cat doesn't eat it before people forget about it.

It was nice while they lasted at $31.50 each.

I can't remember if this is one of those no-no things NOT to be posted but just got off the phone with WM customer service and they refunded the difference of $10.08 for each of the birds I bought at $44.95 back in June as it was within the 90 day window for price matches.  No questions asked either and was very easy. Just FYI to y'all.  If this is a no-no then the Mods will remove as they see fit.

Got an adjustment from my June order. Thanks!

This is available at Amazon and (still) Walmart, both are back to full price. Someone from Europe needs to make a deal with someone in the states to buy these and ship them over there.

Over 200 3rd partly sellers on Amazon already. This should be interesting.

Someone has already tried that experiment. Shipping is the deal breaker. Although they were buying at full retail I think.

I would think customs was the dealbreaker, if shipping alone wasn't a big enough problem. No?

It certainly didn't help.

At least you don't have to pay US taxes. 

I ordered some for 45$ at B&N, it came down to 60$ per box after shipping, customs and VAT.

I think it's time to start hoarding these.
I hear it's going to retire soon.

I have 60 birds (20 sets) in my (cage)storage locker. To be quite honest at this point,they are an uninvited guest !  But I have NO doubt, when they FINALLY do sell out, they will be easy money.
